Paul, agreed it's not particularly relevant in this case of tomato-cucumber seeds, however your comment "If I die eating tomatoes, so be it" gives the impression food toxins in the raw vegan diet isn't a serious issue, whereas it is. To this end I would hope my posts on food toxins will help those amongst us who've experienced adverse effects and haven't understood the reason for them.

Well said although in this case I don't think its
really relevant.

Paul,

agreed it's not particularly relevant in this case of tomato-cucumber seeds, however your comment "If I die eating tomatoes, so be it" gives the impression food toxins in the raw vegan diet isn't a serious issue, whereas it is.

Miller" Subject: [rawlife] Rob and Anna in New York Dear Friends, Hello. Anna and I will be in New York this coming weekend for a brief visit. I'll be speaking at a fundraiser for the soon to be opened GREEN PARADISE raw food restaurant in Brooklyn. All monies collected will go to help Cathy and Mawule finish construction of their new raw dream. In addition to my presentation there will be a potluck and time to hang out. We haven't seen most of you in at least a year, and this would be a wonderful opportunity to reconnect while supporting a very worthwhile raw venture. Hope to see you there. Wishing You Peace and Sunshine, Rob ______________________ THE RAW FOOD R/EVOLUTION Potluck dinner and talk with raw writer, speaker and educator ROB MILLER Why is raw food eating becoming so popular? Because it works! Far from a diet based on theories and inconclusive studies, raw eating is what every living being, aside from humans and the animals we force-feed, does. And the results are the same-- optimum health on all levels, irradication of almost all disease, and realization of ourselves as an inseparable part of LIFE. In this two hour talk and Q&A Rob Miller will discuss the bigger picture of the raw food movement. He will give very practical tips to thrive eating all raw food, and will discuss in clear terms why the simple act of raw eating is the most powerful environmental, social, political and economic action ever! Raw Food is planetary transformation food!!! The raw food movement is definitely happening in Brooklyn. Raw food potlucks, communities and restaurants are sprouting up all across the world. Please join us for this fundraising event to help with the completion of Brooklyn's only raw food restaurant, GREEN PARADISE. All proceeds go to GREEN PARADISE.
